DURA™ is manufactured using our clean steel melting technology, which is vacuum degassed and ladle furnace refined before casting. Alloyed with Cr-Ni-Mo and heat-treated to produce a fine Pearlitic / Bainitic structure, DURA™ is offered with different carbon levels and flexible hardness ranges to suit a variety of rolling applications.

The hardness adjustment is obtained during a complex heat treatment process.
For production, we need a range of 5 ShC which needs to be specified in the roll order.
Our technical team can help to determine the most suitable grade, degree of hardness and manufacturing method to meet with individual mill conditions and specifications.
